Chapter 311: The Second Branch Is Coming Back
After sending Carl away, Mo Li stayed in her private mansion and refused to see anyone.
Her will was diminished, and she took it that Carl was still with her.
The members of the organization stayed nearby and continued to protect Mo Li as per Carl’s orders.
It did not matter even if they lost their leader, Carl, because they would have a new leader. Hence, they could only stay by Mo Li’s side before then, until she was willing to walk out.
Mo Li’s mobile phone began to ring and she frowned in disdain when she answered the call.
The other party spoke to her in fluent English, discussing the deal.
She wasn’t interested.
She just wanted to be alone.
It was only when she heard that the person who wanted to buy the new drug was from the Li Family that she was truly interested.
Who could it be in the Li Family?
Of course it was Li Zhuo.
Mo Li did not have any relationship with Li Zhuo, nor did she have any dealings with him. However, Li Zhuo had once accepted Carl’s help and hence, had business dealings with him.
Li Zhuo was sent to the branch company at the border and was developing his underground business. He needed Carl’s supplies.
Mo Li finally perked up and proposed a deal with Li Zhuo. However, she had a request.
She had a new type of drug that needed experimentation, and this target needed to be within close observation.
She had already said so much, and the person who had contacted her had also relayed her message.
Li Zhuo should understand now, right?
If Li Zhuo didn’t understand… Someone in the Li family would definitely be able to do it.
After ending the call, a smile finally formed on Mo Li’s face. She hugged Carl’s bloodstained clothes and said with a sneer, “It’s not like the Li Family is very capable. They also have their own selfish motives.”
“Wu Mei, you are truly miserable.”
Li Nanchen should be the one suffering, right?
Even if Li Zhuo wanted to deal with Wu Mei, he would not directly deal with her. Instead, his gaze would land on Li Nanchen.
He heard that Li Nanchen was injured and brought a lot of tonics back to the Li Family to pay him a visit.
It was really a visit.
When Old Master Li heard the news of his return, his face was as black as a dark cloud. However, because the reason for Li Zhuo’s return was reasonable and the Li Corporation knew about this matter, he couldn’t just chase Li Zhuo away.
His face was cold as he looked at Wu Mei and Li Nanchen at the dining table. He said seriously, “When you see Li Zhuo later, don’t take it to heart. They’ll be heading back soon.”
“If they have other intentions, you don’t have to be merciful.”
If they really wanted to deal with Li Zhuo, Old Master Li might hesitate.
After all, their surnames were Li and they were family.
Li Nanchen smiled lightly, but his eyes were extremely solemn. It seemed like Li Zhuo wanted to take advantage of his injury to return to the company and seize power.
Unfortunately, he wouldn’t have the chance.
Wu Mei’s gaze shifted from Li Nanchen’s face to Old Master Li. She smiled and comforted Old Master Li. “Grandpa, it’s a good thing that our relatives came to visit Nanchen. They won’t have any bad intentions.”
If they really have bad intentions, what should they do?
Of course, they would make them pay the price and not give them any chance to turn the tables.
Her smile was very infectious, and it made Old Master Li’s gloomy mood dissipate a lot.
She held Li Nanchen’s hand on the table and shot him a look.
Li Nanchen accompanied Old Master Li upstairs. On the other hand, she looked at the butler and smiled. “Uncle Butler, my mother’s health isn’t very good. I’m also worried about letting her stay at home alone so I still want her to stay here for a few more days.”
The butler beamed when he heard that.
He was still worried that if Mother Wu went home alone, Wu Mei would choose to leave Li Nanchen because she was worried.
It seemed that this would not happen.
“Young Madam, don’t worry. I’ll make the arrangements,” the butler immediately assured Wu Mei.
Wu Mei put down the spoon and said in a low voice, “Second Uncle Li is coming back. You have to take care of him.”
She felt that Li Zhuo might do something in the dark, so she had to be careful.
As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Yue, who had walked into the dining room, said bluntly, “Wu Mei, you’re thinking too much. The Li family has me protecting them. Nothing will happen.”
“Good luck then,” Wu Mei said. She wiped her mouth with a napkin and cheerfully left.
Feng Yue was furious about being completely disregarded. When she heard Wu Mei asking the butler to give Lin Piaopiao an extra bowl of soup, she grew even angrier.
One Wu Mei was already annoying enough.
There was still a crazy woman upstairs.
She wanted to get close to Li Nanchen, but she could not execute her plan. She could only watch from afar.
It made her anxious.
When Li Zhuo arrived at the Li Family villa that afternoon, he only saw Old Master Li.
It was very busy in the Li Family residence. They tidied up another guest room.
Li Zhuo was unhappy. He felt that Old Master Li was just being perfunctory by letting them stay in the guest room. However, he did not dare to make too many requests.
He would settle down first and plan slowly.
“Why don’t I see Nanchen? I heard that he’s injured. He must be resting in the bedroom.” Li Zhuo smiled sincerely.
Old Master Li cleared his throat and touched the walking stick in his hand. He said lightly, “He has already gone to the company.”
Li Zhuo’s eyes widened instinctively.
Where did Li Nanchen go?
Didn’t they say that Li Nanchen was seriously injured and couldn’t take care of business for the time being? Why did he suddenly go to the company?
